They're nerfing Dynamic Flight Speed in Old World content

Boo hoo, the guy that is crying to have oldschool removed is sad.

Noone is going to refute that dragonriding is better without the speed lol

Read the thread. 2 tried and failed hard. They are the reason why I made the first comment as I knew the thread would be hit by the DF trolls that would rant if they saw it.

a lot of zones you walk away from keyboard while flying you run into a wall.

I used soar from the top of the tree in Hyjal all the way past Uldum and it took maybe a full minute. You’re not going to notice. Ever.

So there’s no reason to need to go to mach 40 by that logic. You’re not going to notice whenever you can cross the whole map in a fraction of the time it would take to normal fly it. Or even taxi fly it.

You know what would really make the old zones feel bigger again? Pathfinder.

Just seems like there is so much more you could get your panties in a twist over, like this is a really weird hill to die on

i like how i just state something as what happens and you try and warp it into an argument against you. I’m not gonna entertain any of your arguments. believe whatever you want.

Faster will always be better. If speeds are equal, hovering is better than nothing.

This is such a weird statement

Oh yeah they’re adding it to more mounts. But yeah, if the only reason someone likes it is because it’s faster that’s fine too.

But yeah I’m stoked to have it on my pandaren phoenix and (hopefully) Moose.

I’m sad I won’t be able to use it on my magic carpet or Mage tower tome mount for dr, probably. Which is a drawback.

If the problem is that the old zones are too small, then maybe we can stretch them out. There could be so much new content there if those zones where less cramped. Somehow the Arathi Highland was once a nation but there are about two farms in the entire country and a troll settlement and a POW camp for captured orcs thou I suspect that Hammerfall camp was originally a mining community but that is just a guess. And that was the entire nation of Arrathi. Anything else was, including the ogre communities, was added after the nation collapsed. If we stretch the size of Arathi then the farms could become entire towns.

To keep druid node farming relevant, lol

This is good news.

Nerfs are never good news, but this isnt as big of a deal as people are making it out to be

Are you projecting me as being offended or something, because that’s awfully presumptuous. It’s just a simple fact that if you can run into a wall when going afk you’ll probably do it at 644% speed or whatever the nerf was whenever I did the math earlier because things likely won’t render in well in the old continents because they’ve never been forced to render in so quickly.

It’s a technical nerf to keep people from crashing servers in unoptimized zones, because if you think they are going in there zone by zone and making tweaks to keep a crash loop from happening, you’re coping hard.

No that won’t change anything. You make the zones larger now you need old flight to be faster and they will QQ until they get it.

There is no way they don’t complain in new content going half or less the speed of other players. The problem here is the devs justified their future complaining by giving them this.

This is how the future complaints will go. It starts with this first mistake.

The better flying is being forced to go slower outside of dragon isles? Are they serious?

Folks just whine about anything and everything.
